Human Rights and Racial Discrimination in Housing
From: Resisting Eviction
$0.70
This book concludes with a discussion of the human rights case initiated by Heron Gate tenants evicted in 2018 who are seeking a right to return. The potentially precedent-setting case before the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal, which considers whether the displacement of racialized tenants is a form of discrimination, could curb the gentrifying endeavours of predatory real estate investment while advancing housing rights in Ontario and Canada.
